🤫 Silence for a Cause

On 31st January, our students will take on a powerful challenge to support the Dignity Centre, a refugee charity here in Bournemouth.

They’ll choose between:

🔇 12 hours of complete silence
📵 24 hours without digital devices

By staying silent, they will make a big noise for compassion, community spirit, and change - raising vital funds and awareness for displaced people in need.

We are proud to see our students making a difference 💛

We are so inspired by the students, teachers and community at Avonbourne Academy in Bournemouth, who are taking part in a sponsored silence this Saturday in support of Refugee Support Europe.

Thank you to everyone involved in this incredible initiative
